I know you all hate posting real world data instead of that touchy-feely "what I would buy" subjective garbage, but those do factor into real world decision making. So, how about maintenance intervals and mpg numbers?
Also, and this is a little more subjective, how about an aftermarket parts comparison? The buell aftermarket is still getting started, I haven't ever seem much more than exhausts for the Kaw. The FZ1 is all new, byut yamaha is great with upgrade parts. The honda has been around for long enough for there to be a great aftermarket for it, but is there much else besides exhausts and wind-screens?
